After this talk, the parents went to various rooms where teachers gave the pros and cons of taking certain sub- jects. Afterwards, refreshments were served in the cafeteria. Friday night, O'Neill played host to McLaughlin's basketball teams. After the games the gym- nastics teams put on a display followed by a wrestling match and then the BAA dance.

Last week, the senior stu- dents of O'Neill went on uni- versity tours. Students had a choice of nine universities which they could visit on Wed- nesday afternoon and evening. No doubt everyone benefit- ed from the trip. DON PARKER House Designing Is Lauded By Architect In Toronto TORONTO (CP) -- Architects should never lose touch with the designing of houses, says a Van- ecouver-born architect of Japa- mese ancestry. "I always do one priyate home a year and always lose money on them," says Raymond Moriyama, now a Toronto resi- dent who has been commis- sioned to plan. Ontario's centen- nial project--a $15,000,000 centre for science and technology. "But . architects should do this,' adds Mr. Moriyana, 35, who says he works only for clients he likes and who will ac- cept his ideas of how the client should be housed. The custom- ers selected end up in housing costing anywhere from $18,000 to $100,000. Winner of.the Massey Medal-- Canada's top architectural prize --Mr. Moriyama makes use of glass and textured concrete in smaller structures. His interiors emphasize wood and stone. He also designed the Japanese Cultural Centre here. Mr. Moriyama's office has 18 employees, but he has no part- ners. "I believe the art of archi- tecture comes from the heart and mind of one man," he says. "Therein lies the strength and weakness of this office." Architecture is for people, he adds, so housing is a fundamen- tal social problem. Architects can't solve people's problems, but physical environment can improve people. Design can de- press or elate. TACKLES SLUMP PROJECT A graduate in architecture of the University of Toronto and in town planning of McGill Uni- versity, he is currently working on a 240-unit public housing project here that will cost close to $7,000,000 and is scheduled to replace a slum section of the city by 1967. Although the architect should not tell people how to live, "he should provide a framework for physical environment that will sallow em to live with more dignity and with scope to ex- press themselves," he says. He is to begin work soon on two Toronto projects, a group home for emotionally disturbed children and a children's aid centre, and a convention hall in Nassau to accommodate 2,000 persons. An individualistic designer who stamps his work with a combination of no - nonsense Western technology and Japa- nese sensitivity, Mr. Moriyama Says people's minds are a com- bination of logic and emotion and both factors must be satis- fied.

In this phase, too, the Oshawa area played its part. In the period from 1836 to 1922, 214 different railways were built in Canada under more than 200 charters. Each of these en- terprises was a separate seed grown in ehe economic soil of Canada. Some fell on stony ground but a surprising num- ber took root. The railway infection, which had swept other sections of the Dominion, caught the hamlets of 'Manchester, Port Perry and Prince Albert in 1868. To fur- ther their ambitions they sought the aid of James Holden, a prosperous citizen of Whitby, the nearest port on Lake Ont- ario. The result was the incorpora- tion on Mar. 4 of that year of the Whitby and Port Perry Rail- way Company, which had auth- ority to build from a point on Lake Scugog to a point on Lake Ontario. BONUS PROVIDED The Town of Whitby provided a bonus of $50,000, Whitby Town- ship $20,000 and Reach Township | $30,000. Of $300,000 in author- | ized capital stock $110,080 was | paid in. The contract for the 19.47-mile line was placed with a Cobourg contractor who threw it up. Eventually the railway was completed by Company en- gineers and was opened for tr- | affic in July, 1871. After the completion of the line, the company ran into fin- ancial troubles. Available money was lacking and a floating debt of $167,000 remained. Mr. Holden became associ- ated with Joseph Bigelow and they came up with a plan to change the venture into a tra- music Qualified Teachers of... (Loener During Aptitude Period.)

With this in mind it became the Whitby and Port Perry Extension Rail- way in 1874 with authority to puild almost anywhere in North America. Operating revenues in 1876 totalled $48,810 and operating costs $29,670. For this reason plans to reach the Pacific Oc- ean were amended in favor of an extension from Port Perry to Lindsay. In March, 1876, the company got its third name: the Whitby, Port Perry and Linsay Railway Co., the Lindsay extension be- ing opened in August of that year. The cost of the line was given as $1,181,790. In addition to the paid up stock, subsidies were received from federal, pro- vincial and municipal sources in the amount of $317,052 and an issue of $690,000 in first mort- gage bonds had been sold. FINANCIAL WOES Financial troubles continued to plague the company and on one occasion John Bigelow resign- ed as president to lend the firm $40,000. Known to many area resi- dents as 'The Nip and Tuck", the line had no snow plough and winter trains were often stalled. No one seemed to mind jas cases of eggs and crates Re THE Golden Girls Back!...

Fortunately for the Whitby proprietors, the extension te Lindsay had given their prop- erty nuisance value and it was included in the Midland amak gamation in 1881. Service on the Whitby-Man- illa Junction section continued until about 20 years ago when the line was abandoned. Today only the 12-mile section between Lindsay and Manilla Junction remains in operation.
